Dear Gollevainen,
Thanks to SOC, I have found more info from earlier threads at this forum enough to complement what I already knew. By the way, similarities to some Chinese aircraft designs are astonishing as it is noted in the previous threads!.
I don’t mind to share info. There is some info on International Air Power Journal. I think it is a clear summary on the project. I think is unfair to show it in the web but if you send me a Private Message with your email address I’ll send you scans for personal use.
If you are interested on unbuilt projects research please feel free to email me because this is my passion. Everybody is also invited.
IAR-95 required an engine thrust of 54 kN dry and 91 kN with afterburner. The Chinese WS-9 (licensed RR Spey) was selected.
One or two (depending on design study) Tumansky R-29-300 turbojet rated at 122kN with afterburner was to be the powerplant of IAR-S.
IAR-95 technical data :
Length overall: 14.75 m
Height overall: 4.95 m
Wing Span: 8.7 m
Wing area, gross: 26 m²
Wing sweep at quarter chord: 35 deg.
Empty weight: 6800 kg
Maximum take-off weight: 10000 kg
Powerplant: 1 WS-9
IAR-95 ME technical data
(Despite its designation this was the technology demonstrator for IAR-S)
Length: 16.0 m
Wing span: 9.3 m
Height: 5.45 m
Wing area: 27.9 m²
Empty weight: 7,880 kg
Max T-O weight: 15,200 kg
Weapons max. load: 3,200 kg
Powerplant: One Tumansky R-29-300 turbojet rated at 122kN with afterburner
No data available for the different IAR-S configurations
I don’t know if never existed more collaborative Roman-Yugoslavian projects besides the IAR-93/J-22. And, as far as I know there was no relation between IAR-S and Novi Avion.
